A) You've made excuses after both your losses, therefore you are a sore loser.
B) You don't think your important? You just claimed that people "can't resist but to follow you around." I mean, I have 6 players in USA Pro and was active in the forum before DDL was even in this league but I must only be posting because I can't resist following you around right? Anyone who claims to only be "fending off attackers, playing defense, and not looking for trouble or attention" while making a thread called "Calling out Tim Harper to Play a Man's Game!" is a liar and a hypocrite.


Way off.

I didn't claim that it is a fact that people follow me around, I said they give me reason to believe and an impression that they do, that's 2 different things. And maybe I wasn't referring to you but to other people, either way, there are people out there besides yourself that the statement could apply to, I didnt say EVERYBODY followed me around.

Secondly, I'm not making excuses for the losses, I'm explaining the reasons, that has nothing to do with being a sore loser. I'm a fantastic loser when I lose IMO.

Explaining the reasons for losing is making excuses for losing. As far as being a fantastic loser in your opinion, it seems like your opinion would be that your fantastic at everything.

I don't follow your logic at all, I think you just don't get it or you have a bias against me that you want something if anything to reflect negatively on me. And nope, not fantastic at everything, I suck at hockey, heck I don't even know how to skate. Also I'm a TERRIBLE dancer.

What don't you follow?

Why are you insinuating that a reason or an excuse for losing even has anything to do with being a sore loser in the first place? That very premise is illogical.

The premise is that a sore loser makes excuses when they lose instead of being humble and just saying "Good game."

Even if it were true that all sore losers make excuses, that doesnt mean that all excuses are the result of being a sore loser.

And you also have to be careful in delineating between what is a reason and what is an excuse, you can't just warp something into something it's not just because it makes it more convenient for you to bring about a negative attack.

I'm not warping anything. I've only seen you guys lose twice but both losses were followed by you making excuses. Let's see some responses from when you guys beat KZoo.

"Wow. Well played TSE."
"Congratulations DDL."
"Well played DDL, congrats on the win "

That's how to be graceful in a loss. We didn't go and say "We still have some tricks left so that wasn't our best." We didn't make excuses about testing tactics or boosting players. None of us made a thread claiming DDL got lucky in their win.

And also, if making excuses after every loss doesn't make someone a sore loser, what does?

Well KZoo when they played us they weren't playing a team that boosted ahead of them or that outleveled them, there was no reason other than it was a good game.

Warpath beat us with half of their team boosted, had their team not boosted they MOST LIKELY would have lost. That's just how it is. It has nothing to do with being a sore loser, it has to do with being OBJECTIVE and stating a reason for the result, which would have been different in other circumstances if they played us straight up.

There's nothing to congratulate them on anyhow, because they didn't win anything meaningful. Forget about what their team strategy was in making the boost, I'm not talking about that. In the game between our team and their team, WE WON that day, they won the battle but we won the war. They did not jump over us on seeding and they gave up an advantage for the next time we encounter them. That is a win for our team. They should be congratulating us because we gained on them in an area that is more important than the regular season game in that circumstance. In order to be a sore loser, one must first lose. We didn't lose, we were victorious. IF you can't understand that, and HoggLife doesnt understand that, well that isn't a matter of me being a sore loser, that's a case of you not being very clever or smart enough to see the big picture. Sorry if that seems rude, but that's reality whether you choose to accept it or not.

In the Kzoo game, we didn't boost and neither did Kzoo, the next time we meet, both of those things thus cancel out there is no extra edge won or lost, the only thing left was the regular season game itself, and we won that, so well we won that day.

LMAO...nevermind dude, I refuse to partake in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent. You own a team which you make excuses for everytime you lose and yet you still claim objectivity? Then you go and say that losing the game DC results in you losing the battle but winning the war. L-O-fuckn-L

You still don't get it or have a clue. The XP gains that we get relative to the Warpath from them boosting early is worth more than the result of the game even if they won by 100 points. We had a win with respect to them before the game even simmed. If we would have won the game it just would have given us a gigantic victory, instead we had a very slim victory, but it was a close contest, they just came up short.

Ok so you don't make excuses yet in the above post you say "had their team not boosted they MOST LIKELY would have lost". I think that's an excuse and a bit ironic that in your rebuttal you essentially destroy your own argument.

My 2 cents

It's an explanation, not an excuse.

You boosted 1 day later dummy. We won our game vrs DDL so that makes the Warpath The Strategy Experts and you a sore LOSER! Keep making excuses cause they are like assholes, we all have one!

Our boosting after the game is irrelevant in terms of the game you and I played. Our total boosting was still less than your total boosting even after the game was played.

lol - anyway you slice it that is an invalid argument - lol
